Warner Bros. and Silver Pictures have tapped newcomer Evan Daugherty to pen the latest draft of "
Grayskull," the studio's big-screen take on Mattel's "Masters of the Universe" cartoon and toy line.
John Stevenson ("Kung Fu Panda") is attached to direct the adaptation of the show, which followed a blond warrior named Prince Adam who, when uttering the magic words, "By the power of
Grayskull -- I have the power," turned into the heroic He-Man. He and his allies -- Battle Cat, Man-at-Arms and Orko -- defended their planet Eternia from the evil forces of Skeletor, who tried week after week to conquer the fortress Castle
Grayskull, which imbued He-Man with his powers.
